My 8 month old kitten threw up a roundworm last night. It was long and spagetti like. He had pooped a few minutes before he threw up and it was mucous like. I had some of the 8in1 liquid wormer that removes roundworms. I gave him a dose based on his weight. The active ingredient is 250 mg piperazine bas as piperazine citrate for each 5 ml. He weighs just a little over 10 pounds so I gave him the dose for ten pounds which is 1 teaspoon. He pooped this morning and I did not see any worms in it. It was still mucousy and I scooped it out to take it to his vet along with the worm that he vomited on Monday.
Should he poop a lot after? Is there anything else that I can do in the meantime?

Thank you,

Jeri
